Almost every Chinese person can recite(背誦)the two lines of the famous poem, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work ”. But sadly, many of us don’t actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don’t waste food.

A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. Do we have too much food? Absolutely not. According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2011, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger every year.

Chinese people are well-known for being friendly and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food on the table. Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. What should we do in our daily lives to waste less food?

1.Don’t order too much in a restaurant. Only order as much as you want to eat. If you cannot eat all the food you ordered, take the rest of it home.

2.Don’t leave any food in your bowls, while having meals.

3.Keep an eye on what food you have at home. Don’t buy too much, especially for vegetables and fruit.

1.What’s the real meaning of the underlined sentence?

A. 春種一粒粟,秋收萬顆籽。 B. 誰知盤中餐,粒粒皆辛苦。

C. 吏祿三百石,歲晏有余糧。 D. 足蒸暑土氣,背灼炎天光。
